HCAR3 (Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 3) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Acute myeloid leukaemia.
G protein-coupled receptor for 3-hydroxyoctanoate, a fatty acid beta-oxidation intermediate. Signals through the inhibitory G(i)/o family of G proteins. Acts as a negative feedback regulator of adipocyte lipolysis, helping to counterbalance prolipolytic signals during physiological or pathological elevations in beta-oxidation.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 1 cohort (1 activating, 0 loss-of-function), covering Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.

No product in this corpus aims at HCAR3 yet. Drugs fit a pocket that exists only in one shape of the mutant protein and hold it there, off.
First described 1993. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Nomura et al, Int. Immunol, 1993, "Molecular cloning of cDNAs encoding a LD78 receptor and putative leukocyte chemotactic peptide receptors". Source.

G protein-coupled receptor for 3-hydroxyoctanoate, a fatty acid beta-oxidation intermediate. Signals through the inhibitory G(i)/o family of G proteins. Acts as a negative feedback regulator of adipocyte lipolysis, helping to counterbalance prolipolytic signals during physiological or pathological elevations in beta-oxidation. Acts as a low affinity receptor for nicotinic acid. This pharmacological effect requires nicotinic acid doses that are much higher than those provided by a normal diet. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 12q24.31 (HGNC).
